78 Saab : Crossed Lines
By Tim Cashmere
24th September 2004
78 Saab have finally pieced
together and recorded their first full length album. While
their debut EP 'Beat of Your Drum' was good, 'Crossed Lines'
shows the band for what they're worth.
This album begins slowly, but picks up by the time 'Come
On' comes on. In just four tracks, 78 Saab have proven themselves
to be a great pop group who know how to rock out. The Oasis
guitar sound is undeniable and vocalist Ben Nash might not
have the strongest voice in town, but their catchy hooks are
plentiful.
'The City Is Humming' sees the band wig out again, but while
the two examples given here suggest they're a rock band, by
no means are they. They're a straight forward pop group with
an eye for a catchy hook and magnificently structured songs.
